War of the Worlds SUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKed
The day after tomorrow was much better although the acting couldve been better, It had better graphics and the storyline actually made sense. |

Poll needs an option for "neither were good".
Not because "the day after tomorrow" couldn't happen---It is theoretically possible, but because the idea of a man walking like 40 miles in a blizzard like that to reach his son who happens to be burried under that much snow while many other people just froze to death does not seem possible... Oh and because the scene with Emmy Rossum (oh i love her as an actress though) where she "warms" Sam's body with her own because he could get hypothermia makes me CRACK UP.  I get it though; I get it.But I agree---Graphics were good in that movie. I'll give you my two cents on WotW later. |

Theoretically possible? Not in the amount of time portrayed in the film. |

Like the idea that the film centers around. We have to remember that they had to fit all of that within like a 2 to 3 hour time span and even if it flows kind of logically (from day to night to day)--it still could not happen that way. I agree with you, but i meant the concept (hence "quotations") |

War of the Worlds scared me a little. But yes, the storyline was pure crap.
Dakota Fanning was adorable though. |

TDAT - well done. and it made sense. lmao
WOTW- was funny. lol! aileens are coming after them and everyone is running, tom cruise just watches from behind a tree.. some parts are pretty funny though. lol i think the day after tomorrow was better though. |

The Day After Tomarrow all the way. Although I saw it like 2 months ago, I still thought it was pretty good. I just liked how the explained everything so realisticly. It really did sound like that could happen. (though, I hope it doesn't)
Plus, I'm in Emmy Rossum fan ;) (but that isn't the reason why I like the movie better) |

i thought The Day After Tomorrow was one of the worst movies I'd ever seen, full of unrealistid hippie bullcrap. Plus it was so politically biased it might as well have been a campaign commercial for John Kerry
"I'm John Kerry and I support this movie" The vice president in the movie was a complete a-hole and they made him look just like d**k Cheney, I am seriously so glad I had a girlfriend to be with during this movie so I didn't have to watch the whole thing, it's in my top 5 worst of all time |

QUOTE(sprinkle-the-stars @ Jul 19 2005, 2:37 PM) Ok So really you are asking me to make a choice between Jake Gyllenhall or Tom Cruise. *sigh* Jake's younger. Dude. You are completely wrong about both movies. Day After Tomorrow - Completely realistic. They had some scientist on one of the talk shows and he said that it COULD TOTALLY HAPPEN. The idiots died cause they went out INTO THE STORM WHEN HE [JG's character, Sam i think?] SAID DONT! War of the Worlds- Yes Robbie was a complete teenager and was an utter idiot but still. It's realistic. Aliens couldn't handle our atmosphere. THey ate our food, drank our water, and DIED FROM IT. Obviously their planet was DIFFERENT from ours. Why do our spacemen wear those suits? Cause we can't handle the atmosphere on other planets so...the aliens are the same. Geesus. I so wanna be a lawyer. Yeah, but the ending was still stupid... if they were so smart, and if they were watching us, they would've noticed. |

I really don't like The Day After Tomorrow.
I haven't seen the Tom Cruise War of the Worlds yet. The original is one of my favorite movies though. See the original or read the book. |

Why do our spacemen wear the big michelin tire man suits when they're on the moon? Why do they carry around big tanks of oxygen? Watching from a distance couldn't have told them anything. |

Our spacemen wear the "big michelin tire man suits" because we've explored space and KNOW that there is no breathable air in space. ...... You failed to prove a point. This just shows that even the human race, albeit inferior to the "alien race" in WotW, was able to make smarter decisions. Even we wouldn't go to Mars without researching it and expect to survive there. |

It isn't that hard..is it? So basically you're defending the ending to WotW .... If aliens are capable of travelling "lightyears away" to ATTACK Earth wouldn't it be, the least bit, feasible that they could at least EXPLORE our earth beforehand .... before planning such a large scale attack? I'm sorry ..... but use YOUR head |
